In process of laying out the wiring for an A139 Pro 2-Ch w/ BBMC PC8 & Cellink Neo Ext battery.
I'm wiring in a 30 amp DPDT relay to control +12 Vdc Power In to the PC8. With the extra set of relay contacts, I plan to toggle power for the A139 between car's electrical system & the BC8.
This is to eliminate the shallow battery cycling while the ignition is on & batteries fully charged, as well as to slightly speed up charge time by eliminating the Dash Cam load while charging, in addition to it being easy to do.
The split second the relay is switching from car's electrical system to the PC8's, there will be a brief power cut due to how a mechanical relay works (likely around 5 - 15mS).
I'm assuming the A139 Pro's internal cap will buffer this brief pause, else it'd be kind of useless / pointless to even have.
Anyone know roughly how long the cap can power the device running 2 channels, full res, max bitrate?
